How snails and angelic Reiki calm an overstimulated nervous system?

It’s December, which means it is hibernation time for my snails. I barely see them and it is sad, as I miss playing with them.
You must be wondering, snails?
What?
Yes, you heard me correctly, my friend. I am talking about snails.
Some call themselves the mother of dragons, and I call myself the duchess of snails.
(P.S. - The duchess of snails sounded much better than the thought of calling myself the sister of snails).
Jokes aside, I am a highly sensitive person who constantly experiences shifts in energies, emotions, and cognitive states. Although I use tools like art, angelic Reiki, exercise, tea, and angelic invocations to support my sensitivity, I find snail time equally beneficial to regulate my nervous system.
Snails, the beautiful creatures that they are, can help sensitive individuals soothe. Their energy can impact the nervous system of sensitive individuals. I know that it is not always possible for sensitive individuals to find a snail, so it is my gentle suggestion to find videos of snails to observe them. It could help you feel relaxed too.
When I would observe the snails near my apartment, I would feel as though observing them would make my thoughts slow down. My nervous system would feel soothed, and the hum-drum of my day would soon feel less of a problem. Scientifically speaking, I am uncertain about the reasons why snails have a soothing effect on one's nervous system, however, energetically speaking, snails ooze out so much love energy that it impacts the nervous systems of sensitive individuals. It is my opinion that snails connect with sensitive individuals quickly because they understand the problems of sensitive individuals. We could think that animals, even snails, wouldn't be aware of humans; however, I beg to differ.
Snails are perceptive of human energy. They respond to human energy. They connect to human energy too.
If you don't believe me, I encourage you to get a hold of a snail (or a video of a snail) and give time observing that beautiful creature!
Two of the possibilities can come forward: You could either absolutely get bored of observing them, or you could absolutely begin to love snail time.
If it is the latter, I welcome you to my life.
Snails, Nervous System Regulation & Sensitivity
If you notice, snails retreat into their shells to restore their energy, protect themselves, and regain responsiveness. As a sensitive individual, I find it extremely essential to do the same. Sensitive individuals have sensitive nervous systems, which can make them prone to overstimulation (that is, feeling overloaded with information that could be cognitive, energetic, or emotional in nature).
One of the reasons sensitive individuals feel clogged or foggy is because they could feel challenged by having to process much information. At such times, I find it helpful to use the metaphors of snails. I imagine snails could be feeling overstimulated with the amount of lettuce they have to eat, or the amount of crawling they have to do, and can I just say, the amount of humans they need to carefully pass by?
So, dear reader, be like a snail when you're overstimulated.
Retreat. Rest. Recover.
How Angelic Reiki Mirrors Snail Energetics (and Supports Sensitive Souls Globally)?
How does angelic Reiki mirror snail energetics?
Reiki and snails?
How are they related?
Well, they are in a way.
Angelic Reiki almost mirrors a snail's energy as it can be a process that is gentle, protective, non-reactive, boundary-building, and soft. Also, snails can be great friends. Similarly, sensitive individuals could feel supported by angelic helpers and feel their friendly and loving energies.
Reiki was first discovered by Dr. Mikao Usui in Japan. Today, there are many forms of Reiki that exist. Traditional Reiki comes from source energy or the source; however, the Reiki I practise comes from angels (yes, angels are real). To briefly explain angels, angels are energetic beings who guide, support, heal, guard, and protect humans, plants, animals, objects, and spaces. We all have angels, and we don’t have to be ‘special’ to have angels.
I work with Reiki energy that comes from angels who send me healing, soothing, comforting, loving, and creative energy. The Reiki energy has helped me learn about my sensitivity and embrace it.
As I mentioned earlier, I practice angelic Reiki and offer energy/emotional healing services for sensitive individuals globally. In my four years of experience with angelic Reiki, I've noticed many changes and improvements with my cognitive health. Some of the benefits of angelic Reiki is that it can decrease stimulation, clear negative energies, heal our nervous systems, and protect our energy.
I find angelic Reiki quite beneficial for sensitive individuals, as it can imbibe sensitive individuals with soothing energies. When we are overstimulated, our head can feel heavy, and we can feel as though we are bombarded by external influences. Angelic Reiki can help clear these negative influences and keep our mind clear.
Now, if you're interested in working with angelic Reiki to support your energy health and indulge in self-care, please do book a free 30-minute consultation call and connect with me. I am happy to hold your hand and send you angelic love and Reiki energy that can help you with all areas of your life, including your health, wealth, inner child, personal growth, creativity, and more! I am happy to support you; all you need to do is ask by booking a meeting with me. Also, it is important to understand that angelic Reiki is a distant healing technique, which means it can be sent to you regardless of your geographical location.

A bit about me: Hi guys, my name is Dr. Pranita Rao. I am a former dentist, published science author, intuitive abstract artist, and an angelic medium.
